Memory Protocol Launches to Enable Cross-App Data Portability
Memory Protocol, developed by Oscillator Inc (creators of Factory FM), introduces a new open protocol that enables seamless data portability across applications.

The protocol aims to create a more connected and efficient digital experience while maintaining user data sovereignty. *Key benefit*: Users can maintain consistent digital identity and preferences across multiple platforms.
